Do something more useful than walking with rifle

Recently there was a picture and related story in the Press-Gazette about two people roaming the streets of Green Bay with semi-automatic rifles slung over their shoulders. When I was in Green Bay I saw this sight firsthand.

My first thought was to ask them if the squirrels had declared war and the nuts were being armed. Then I thought better of posing this question to someone with a loaded rifle.

Is someone paying these people to roam the streets? Are they grown kids playing army? Are they out to help protect the public? Are they attempting to make a statement about the Second Amendment? Are they there to demonstrate the risk of someone carrying a loaded gun on busy streets? What is the purpose of doing this?

Why not do something useful? Many organization are looking for volunteers. Take your pick. Do something for the needy - not for the NRA and/or the weapons industry or the nuts that need to feel safe or powerful by open carrying a gun.
